BOONE, N.C. — App State has hired Brad Bielaniec as Director of Athletic Performance to oversee the football program's strength and conditioning.

"We're excited to welcome Brad and Shelby back to App State," head coach Shawn Clark said. "Brad will bring a detailed, disciplined approach, and his ability to motivate players with a focus on toughness will be a huge asset to our football program."
